A Reason To Kill – What Would Mohammed Say?

This morning, I unwrapped a piece of America’s Original, Dubble Bubble. The very thought of that first sweet burst of flavor squishing between my teeth and spilling out over my tongue was making my mouth water.

Before I popped it into my mouth, I took a moment to forge its pliable LIFELESS matter into a loosely-defined minute shape of Mohammed — my own mini-protest
to the prophet of a religion which, even in recent times, has spawned such deadly hatred and violence, not just towards my country, but towards humanity in general.

I looked at his little miniature face ….

… and had to pause. I would soon enjoy a burst of flavor from this symbol many of whose religious followers I found repugnant; a small satisfaction at best.
